A Cabin In Alaska

A Cabin In Alaska

 

I’d cut down all the needed wood

And build a cabin if I could

It would be my gift to you

And be our dream coming true

 

Alaska would be the place to be

With its land so pristine

And plenty room to enjoy

Our family of girls and boys

 

We would fish there many days

For fresh trout we would bake

And be careful with hungry bears

Fishing too for their fare

 

We’d store the extra fish we caught

Up high from bears close a lot  

And teach the kids they could be

Providers for our family

 

Spring would mean other things

Like reward for those laboring

And the kids all would learn

All good things must be earned

 

We’ll also play in the sun

Happy that spring has finally come

With plenty hours of light each day

Ample time to work and play

    Holy crap this is amazing! I’m in love with it honestly. I live in the city and I often fantasize about leaving it all behind and living off of the land in some uninhabited place. Then I realize I’m severely reliant I civilization and wouldn’t even know where to began.

    Not only is your rhyming scheme well organized but the message is so beautiful and inspiring. Well done!

      Thanks so much, MoU. I went to Denali National Park on my honeymoon and have been in love with Alaska ever since. We were only able to visit the park, and the coastal areas I've yet to see. I don't live in the city, but I hope to return to Alaska someday. There were such beautiful rivers and streams there. I want to do a little fishing and go hiking again.

      Best Wishes and thanks again!

        Thanks Goldfinch. It's the cabin of my dreams. I can just see myself fishing from a stream in my front yard!

          Thanks, orchidee. Yes, the winters are frigid. I can understand your reluctance to go there.
